Xiao Lian, too cold to feel shy, wanted to immerse himself in warm water. Once in the hot water, he felt warmth flow into his heart, spreading throughout his trembling body. Though warm, tears continued to fall, knowing she would never be with her again.
Xu Yi looked at Jin Yu in a panic, his gaze unfocused. Jin Yu calmly comforted him, “Don’t worry, you will definitely see. Even if you can’t see, you are still my husband, and you will give birth to my child in the future.”
Xu Yi’s cheeks blushed slightly as he nestled in Jin Yu’s arms. Jin Yu asked persistently, “Really, you can’t see anything at all?”
Internally flustered, Xu Yi kept his head down and remained silent. He didn’t want his wife to know he could occasionally see blurry shadows and that his surroundings were no longer completely dark. He feared that if his vision improved, his wife might leave him. He didn’t want to return to the Xu household; he couldn’t go back.
Jin Yu thought Xu Yi was anxious about still not being able to see and tried to alleviate his worries.
Jing Yu suppressed her disappointment, rubbing Xu Yi’s slender waist and softly saying, “Your waist is still so slender.” Xu Yi’s cheeks turned red as he buried his head in Jing Yu’s embrace, and his worries diminished.
Xiao Lian cried and ran to her room, throwing herself onto the bed and sobbing uncontrollably. When Su Xi came to see her and heard the muffled crying, she knocked on the door with worry.
Xiao Lian threw herself into Su Xi’s arms, crying dramatically. Su Xi felt heartbroken and unsure how to comfort her.
“I want to leave here, I don’t want to see her again…” Xiao Lian’s voice was filled with grievance and pain.
Su Xi felt even more distressed. Xiao Lian wiped her tears, “I’ll leave after the baby is born, I won’t live with her anymore…”
“Don’t talk nonsense,” Su Xi replied uneasily, not wanting Xiao Lian to leave.
“I’m not talking nonsense,” Xiao Lian insisted, determination in her eyes, “I want to find a husband, I want to get married…” This way, she could stop thinking about her and stop feeling pain.
